Belarus may not want Russia to launch a nuke in their territory. I'd say they will try to use conventional forces to stall Poland first before resorting to nukes.

This is not a good sign for Ukraine, like I mentioned yesterday the way Google Map traffic works is the phone has to be able to get GPS and upload via Internet, meaning its not the Russia that is censoring but now the American side.... meaning they know which way the wind is blowing now...
Well it shows that you should never start a war expecting your enemies to be weak. Always stay vigilant so you won’t be surprised. The Russian soldiers really felt that they would be allowed in with open arms.
Supposedly 1/3 of Russia's forces have not been committed.
Yes of course:
Russia has been building up force in Brest for ages now. That's why everyone's guessing that's where the next attack will come.
If China’s trying to integrate Taiwan into its territory, would that create ill will?
What are you willing to bet?
I would bet 100 dollars CDN (sorry I am cheap), that by the time this conflict is over, the numbers of casualties and losses we can read from the internet and the media (which are mostly sourced from Ukrainian claims) would exceed the total number of troops Russia has, as well as the total numbers of tanks and IFV/APCs Russia has in service.
hahahahahaha, I love you, you are too much fun!
I Am Not An Expert on Belarusian Military here.
Quick googling suggests Belarus has 6 mechanized brigades and the army is about 50k to 60k people in total. So, maybe, 12 to 18 brigades in total? /very uncertain shrug
39 Mig-29s and 68 Su-25s seems to be the majority of the air force.
The biggest limitations I saw commented on is that the Russians don't have enough tubes for a true saturated missile strike on the first day. Higher failure rates than Western cruise/ballistic missiles and older stockpiles add up so many targets weren't destroyed.
Not enough salvo firepower compared to the US and I assume China as well.
Biggest difference between a Taiwan conflict and what we saw in Ukraine on the opening hours.
Not enough planes committed either. I assume Russia's increasing the readiness its nuclear posture is also to allocate much more aviation to Ukraine. More than they think they needed.
